An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on June 18, 2025, identified one deficiency related to sanitary conditions in a resident’s room due to increased incontinence. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of multiple deficiencies involving resident abuse, medication administration errors, incomplete assessments, unsecured medication storage, fire safety issues, and delayed incident reporting. Several complaint investigations substantiated findings of resident abuse, elopement, and safety violations, with enforcement actions noted in June 2023 but no fines or license suspensions listed in the available reports. Plans of correction were frequently submitted and often fully implemented by follow-up inspections, indicating ongoing efforts to address issues. While deficiencies have persisted over time, recent follow-ups suggest some improvement in compliance with corrective actions.
